This lower-ground retirement flat at Oak Lodge offers a low-maintenance base in central Sutton, within easy walking distance of shops, transport links and local amenities. The development benefits from well-kept communal gardens, a residents’ lounge for socialising and lift access, making daily life convenient and sociable.
The apartment is chain free and ready for immediate occupation, with double glazing and communal management providing an added sense of security. Off-street residents’ permit parking and attractive shared grounds add practical comfort for residents and visitors.
Practical considerations include the 90-year lease remaining, an average service charge of £3,630 per year and electric storage heating — factors that affect running costs. The flat sits on the lower-ground level, so natural light is more restricted than upper-floor homes. These points are offset by the central location, on-site management and the development’s maintained communal facilities, making this a sensible choice for downsizers seeking convenience and community.
